Neurocil Mechanism of Action

Psychoanaleptics (other psychostimulants and nootropics).
Pharmacology: Pharmacodynamics: When administered orally, it is absorbed almost completely and its bioavailability is approximately the same when administered IV. Once absorbed, cytidine and choline disperse widely throughout the body, cross the blood-brain barrier and reach the CNS, where they are incorporated into the phospholipid fraction of the cellular membrane and microsomes. The concept that administration of exogenous citicoline can augment the synthesis of neural membrane phospholipid is attractive, because accelerated replacement or repair plays a critical role in maintaining the healthy function of numerous physiological processes. It has shown therapeutic efficacy in a variety of diseases in which membrane disorder, dysfunction or degeneration result in cellular and tissue ischemia and necrosis.
